METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MEASURING A REMAINING CAPACITY OF A BATTERY WHEN CHARGING CONSTANT CURRENT/CONSTANT VOLTAGE MODE IN A PORTABLE TERMINAL

摘要

According to one embodiment, a method for measuring the remaining capacity of a battery in a portable terminal includes calculating an elapsed time when a voltage of the battery, which increases while the battery is being charged, arrives at a fully charged voltage, and providing a remaining capacity of the battery, which corresponds to a ratio of the calculated elapsed time to a threshold time.
